Özet
Hereditary transthyretin-mediated amyloidosis (hATTR) is a
rare, systemic and progressive autosomal dominant disease
caused by mutations in the TTR gene. Systemic deposition
of amyloidogenic mutant transthyretin results in organ dysfunction
[1]. While the Val30Met has been considered to be
the most common mutation there have been more than 120
amyloidogenic TTR mutations reported worldwide [2].
Phenotypic expression of hATTR is heterogeneous and
influenced by TTR genotype, geographic location and other
genetic and environmental factors [3]. The heterogeneity of
this rare disease makes its diagnosis challenging.
